Southern Poutine Recipe

SKIP TO INGREDIENTS

What do Canadians know that we Southerners don’t? Quebecers lay claim to poutine as something of a national dish, but potatoes and sausage gravy or biscuits and sausage gravy have been around the South for centuries. The addition of cheddar hoop cheese and – optionally – a sunny-side up egg on top make this a real meal.
